12. Our project is Childhood Building :
Childhood building is a special building and provision for a special category of children, who have multiple problems of life, so they need special learning environment.
Some of them have health problems, educational problems, practical training.
So we looking for finding a good environment for these category to be able to doing their activities in Comfortably and safely ways.

27. Fire risk and protective factors
Introduction
In this type of buildings there are many resources of risk, such as, fire in the building due to personal error, cooking and short cut in the electricity.
Fire protection and fighting
Fire extinguisher.
Manual -hose- system.

28. Emergency exits in building
Fire Door
Fire door must be in the fully closed position, the door should be automatic closing or self-closing (They return to closed position after being open), and the door should open to outside

29. Site Analysis and project program6
Site Analysis and project program
General information about the site
Area of each floor = 430 m2
#of floors = 5 ( including parking)
